This betting thing has gotten out of control! (LMAO)
In a decision that is most certainly gonna have people in a state of “what the?”, Dave & Buster’s made the announcement Tuesday that they will begin to offer betting on their arcade games such as HotShots basketball & Skee-Ball. Customers will have to be 18 and over to place a wager. (RELATED: Knicks’ Josh Hart Lands ‘Dream’ Endorsement Deal With Mike & Ike)
In a press release that was obtained by CNBC, the popular restaurant and arcade chain says that their customers will be able to gamble $5 (oh, how little do they know what’s coming) on the “D&B Rewards” app.
“This new partnership gives our loyalty members real-time, unrivaled gaming experiences, and reinforces our commitment to continuing to elevate our customer experience through innovative, cutting-edge technology,” Simon Murray, Dave & Buster’s senior vice president of entertainment and attractions, said.

If you thought America was already degenerate enough in 2024, strap up, because this is gonna be a wild ride for you.
It’s funny, man. Growing up as a young sports fan, betting (and overall casino gambling at that) was such a taboo. I remember there being such a negative connotation with that world. Nowadays, sports betting commercials are on television every five seconds, and now here we go with restaurants allowing gambling on their arcade games.
LMAO … we’re totally living in a new day, ladies and gentlemen.
And P.S. I’m happy to report that DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports) has returned to Florida!
Damn, I’m so happy DFS is back in Florida. I missed mornings like these where I wake up to cash. pic.twitter.com/xeMpJWKAr4
